Maven clearCheckSums

clearCheckSums clears all checksums and nullifies the MD5SUM column of the DATABASECHANGELOG table. They will be re-computed on the next database update --changesets that have been deployed will have their checksums re-computed, and pending changesets will be deployed.

Uses

clearCheckSums is typically used when there is a [MD5Sum Check Failed] error message and there is a need to clear the checksums from the DATABASECHANGELOG table.

Maven configuration

You can configure Liquibase Maven in multiple ways. You can pass arguments like <changeLogFile> in Maven directly in your pom.xml file, in a liquibase.properties file referenced in your POM, as environment variables, or as JVM system properties.

Tip: For more information about the Maven configuration, see Configuring Maven.
